Type Level Programming

FP
Advanced FP
Computations are performed on types themselves, rather than on runtime values (compile time over runtime)
Types become first-class citizens (over values)

Examples

Capital Case String

What is functional Programing

It's a paradigm, where functions are first class citzen:

Favor discipline with state(more than just immutability)
Backed by math and "know theories" (not my uncles abstractions)
Focus on have correct programs (repitable == pure functions) (something LLMs cannot do).

PROS

Correctness
Sound concepts via Math

Haxe Lang Tiny Essay

created: 23.MAR.2025

I love to learn new programing languages, it help to open the mind to new possibilities and compare different approaches. For instance, I learned Ruby and Scala in 2010, Clojure and Haskell in 2011, Go in 2015, Kotlin 2016, Rust in 2018 and Idris, TypeScript in 2019, 2020 Pandemic strike did a bunch of pocs but not with new langs(crazy year), Zig in 2021, 2022(coding in lots of langs but nothing new) - in 2023 I'm learning Nim and V. Learn at least one lang per year. This post is not complain, it's just to share some toughts, notes and impressions.

Why Haxe

Multi-plataform
Good for Games
